To get started with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can have mafaldine pasta with butternut squash, peppers, and bacon using 10 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

The ingredients needed to make Mafaldine pasta with butternut squash, peppers, and bacon:

1. Prepare salt
2. Get ground black pepper
3. Take 250 g mafaldine pasta
4. Get 4 rashers smoked streaky bacon, cut into lardons
5. Take half a butternut squash, cut into 2cm cubes
6. Get 1 red bell pepper, cut into sliced and halved
7. Take parmesan
8. Get handful basil, chopped
9. Prepare oil, for roasting
10. Prepare 200 g arrabbiatta sauce (from a jar or make it yourself)

Heat large covered saucepot of salted water to boiling on high. Drizzle half of the garlic oil sauce on top and then the butternut squash sauce. Top the duo of sauces with almost all of the crispy bacon, shaved Brussels and half of the parmesan cheese. I used sausage meat for this, rather than mince meat.

Instructions to make Mafaldine pasta with butternut squash, peppers, and bacon:

1. Set oven to 200 C (fan).
2. For the pasta: Boil a large pan of water with a generous amount of table salt.
3. Prepare the veg for roasting… - - Red pepper slices: Mix in with a little oil, salt, and pepper. - - Butternut squash cubes: Same as the red pepper slices, but go bigger on the black pepper. Black pepper adds tonnes of taste to squash.
4. Roast the butternut squash for 25m (approx). On a tray in the oven. - - Roast the peppers for 15m (approx). On a tray in the oven. - - Boil the pasta for 9m (approx). In the sauce pan or pasta pot. - - Fry the bacon bits in a large frying pan for 5m. Get them crispy for some extra crunch. I recommend a large pan here because we're going to toss the pasta and sauce in it later.
5. Mix the arrabbiata sauce into the same pan as the bacon bits (to be a little more healthy, remove the oil if you like). Mix the roasted peppers into the pan too.
6. Drain the pasta and retain some of the pasta water in a mug in case you need to loosen the pasta later.
7. Mix the pasta into the frying pan (where the arrabbiata/bacon/pepper mix is). Toss the pasta together. Put a few of the roast butternut squash cubes in there to (about half).
8. Serve the pasta into two dishes. Grate some parmesan on top. Put the remaining butternut squash on top. Sprinkle on the basil. Serve.

Top the duo of sauces with almost all of the crispy bacon, shaved Brussels and half of the parmesan cheese. I used sausage meat for this, rather than mince meat. It's a bit of a cheat, but it makes the meatballs extra tasty and very easy. You can cook the meatballs however you'd like (fry, oven, etc.). Transfer to a plate and set aside.
